I am a researcher (ISFP) at Inria in the CEDAR team and part-time assistant professor at École Polytechnique. Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at Max Planck Institute for Informatics in the team of Gerhard Weikum. I received my PhD from Télécom Paris and my advisor was Mauro Sozio.

My research interests are in natural language processing, graph learning, and computational social science. You can find a short description of my work here. I accept reviewing for open-access conferences and journals.
